My first venture into the world of photography as fine art was in the seventies... I failed miserably...

I started with still life and got the best response to it. I found that you didn't need fancy equipment or lighting to shoot good still life images.

You just needed a universal subject that touched people. The composition should be right and the image clean, but other than that the image doesn't realize you used a cobbled camera.. Ten dollar junk camera or a fancy dancy nikon (spit) it all the same to the final image it sings or it doesn't. The image always speaks for itself.

That said, I like this image for what it isn't as much as for what it is. Its a little fuzzy but so is my eyesight first thing in the morning. It's a little gray and depressing, so are most of my mornings. It just has the right feel for me, maybe not anyone else but I would guess there are a few others who feel something when they see it. Even if its only nausea.
